First we force people to read the result of bus_for_each_drv() and then when they do and don't need the value, gcc complains, so we add one more layer of useless code, which developers and possibly tools will later wonder and complain about? I can easily imagine that a static code analyzer would spot the above code as being a potential bug. Let's stop this madness now please. Either __must_check goes away from bus_for_each_drv() and from every other function which raises this problem, or we must disable that new type of warning gcc 4.6.0 generates. Depends which warnings we value more, as we can't sanely have both. > mutex_unlock(&core_lock); > > return 0; -- Jean Delvare -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
